Jenny Holzer: Projections

Jenny Holzer has been plastering cities with all kinds of words - truisms, snippets of poetry, even declassified Abu Ghraib documents - for nearly 40 years. She started papering New York city with posters in the '70s, and since then has moved on to LED art and xenon projections onto landmarks and buildings all over the world.

The New York Times' T magazine blog recently posted that Holzer's slogans can now be seen on the chests of South African children in Johannesburg as part of the In Context series of exhibitions during the World Cup. Political statements like "Abuse of power comes as no surprise" and "The sum of your actions determines what you are".

Now, in a somewhat odd turn, she's doing sneakers. Keds, to be exact. The company has partnered with the Whitney Museum of American Art to produce a line of sneakers designed in collaboration with artists.
